Ella Bleu Travolta – the second-eldest child of John Travolta, 71 – finished off her cutting-edge cool look with an oversized matching jacket with silver diamante detail.
The actress and model, who is currently promoting track Colours Of Love in her Instagram bio, styled her locks into a simple up-do.
She kept her make-up minimal, bar a fresh sweep of mascara and brushed brows.
Ella’s mum is John’s late wife Kelly Preston, an actress who starred in the film Twins.
She appears to have inherited her parents ease for the red carpet, taking the time to pose for waiting photographers.
No doubt her nepo-baby status and celebrity connections will have given her a leg-up when it comes to invites for events such as the Lola Casademunt show in the Spanish capital.
Ella often posts videos and pictures of her Pulp Fiction father on social media, including on her Instagram page.
Like the actor, she is a Scientologist.
Yet despite the fact she has dabbled in screen roles, Ella has set her sights on a singing career.
In September, she released the single Little Bird.
This was a follow-up to her 2022 track, No Thank You.
The tune, which centres on feelings of loss, features on the Colors Of Love EP.
She previously told People Magazine the song focusses on “pure relationships” and said: “It’s sort of the viewpoint of a mama bird talking to a baby bird and just not letting any other interference get in between it, because your true instincts were there all along.”
Speaking to the same publication, she added: “I grew up very much so in the public eye.
What is a Nepo Baby?
A ‘nepo baby’ is a colloquial term used to describe individuals who have gained opportunities or success in their careers primarily due to familial connections or the influence of their well-known or wealthy parents, rather than solely through their own talent, skills, or efforts.
The term ‘nepo’ is short for ‘nepotism’, which refers to favouritism granted to relatives or close friends, often in a professional context.
Key Characteristics:
- Inherited advantage: Nepo babies often benefit from their family’s established reputation, wealth, or industry connections.
- Access to networks: They typically have easier access to influential networks and resources within their chosen field.
- Public perception: The term can carry a negative connotation, implying that their success is not entirely merit-based.
Industries Affected:
- Entertainment: Many actors, musicians, and other performers are often labeled as nepo babies if they have famous parents.
- Business: Individuals who inherit or are given significant roles in family-owned businesses.
- Politics: Politicians who follow in the footsteps of their parents or other relatives.
Examples:
- Children of famous actors who become actors themselves.
- Heirs to business empires who assume executive roles.
- Offspring of political figures who enter public office.
The concept of nepo babies is often debated, with some arguing that it undermines the notion of meritocracy.
Meanwhile, others believe that it is natural for families to support and help each other succeed.
“And with that comes a lot of attention, especially when you lose someone.
“There’s definitely the natural support and global support that comes with that.”
Her parent Kelly died of cancer in 2020, aged 57.
STRONG BOND
Back in 2021, Ella and her famous father sent the internet into a meltdown when when they performed one of his songs from Grease.
When she was just ten years old, she starred in his film Old Dogs alongside the late Robin Williams.
In 2019, she once again appeared alongside her dad in The Poison Rose, which also starred Morgan Freeman.
Meanwhile, John often gushes about his offspring on his social media pages.
